I'Ll Make Yours, If You Make Mine

The bed of sorrow is comfortable
It entombs you
in a comforter of darkness

Once you lie in it 
It whispers sweet nothings in your ear
and you want to sleep for eternity

Beautiful numbness creates serenity
You are unable to feel
and begin to lose yourself to the darkness

Agony is a constant presence
A reminder if all that has been lost
and all you lament for

The feeling is like none other
An experience not forgettable
nor memorable

The world ways you down
You were worried about my bed
When you should have been worried about yours
